Princeton’s steady, high-motor edge defender with proven Ivy pedigree
George Pilcher was a productive Princeton defender who earned the 2003 Richard W. Colman Award for excellence on the field and in the classroom, and Princeton listed him as a 6-3, 225-pound DE in the Class of 2004. In the 2003 season, Princeton’s own coverage described him as part of a defensive front that had already been trusted to start all 10 games the prior year, and a 2001 game stat line shows he was active in run support with 6 tackles against Cornell. He stands out for dependable effort, academic discipline, and a hard-nosed, assignment-sound style rather than splashy, stat-padding plays.
